Spaces: Westley Sarokin And His Shoes

Occupation: Visual Effects Supervisor, The MillLocation: East Village, New York

In some ways, Westley Sarokin's East Village Apartment is not unlike many guys' homes who live in New York. He loves skulls, tarantulas and his turn tables. The one special thing about West is that he has over 300 pairs of shoes--most of which are Nike--lining the walls and floors of his apartment. This you don't see everyday. In just four years, he has created a sneaker-lover's paradise. His collection is the silver lining to this one-bedroom space, and you can't help but get to know their owner the second you step foot into this apartment. These photos only capture a glimpse of the array of shoes which make his collection and home unforgettable.
